Building emotional intelligence is pivotal to becoming an effective leader. Emotional reasoning can even trump IQ. While the correlation between IQ (traditionally measured as verbal-mathematical reasoning and perceptual-motor skills) and leadership is not extremely high, the correlation between emotional intelligence (self-awareness, self-management, empathy and social skills) and leadership effectiveness is extraordinarily high.
Join Dr. Rick Gilkey to learn how to build emotional intelligence as a leader and contribute to and build work environments and cultures that are “brain-friendly,” (i.e., ones that bring out the very best in people).
Roderick (Rick) Gilkey, Ph.D., holds a joint appointment at Emory University as a Professor in the Practice of Organization and Management at the Goizueta Business School and Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences in the School of Medicine. He earned his graduate degrees from Harvard University and the University of Michigan.
An award-winning teacher and researcher, Rick has expertise in neuroscience and leadership, executive development, team effectiveness, and change management. He has provided consulting and executive education service to a broad array of organizations, including: AT&T, Bertelsmann Music Group (RCA, Arista Records), Coca-Cola, General Electric, Home Depot, IBM, Johnson & Johnson, Morgan Stanley, PWC, The New York Times, SunTrust, UPS, and the U.S. Department of Defense.
